Getting it wrong, getting helpful and the risk of a PI claim. During this session, you'll get an update about the risks you face as a broker by cutting corners. You'll learn more about relevant law and war stories from the front line, when brokers get it wrong! To present this webinar, we welcome special guest presenters, Blair McNamara and Katy Gale from Brockhill & Usherwood Lawyers.

There are a massive amount of leaky balconies and waterproofing issues across the eastern sea board and many of these are building defects and therefore not covered by insurance. During this webinar, we will discuss plans of subdivision, water act claims and how to understand strata insurance. To present this webinar, we welcome special guest presenters, Blair McNamara and Katy Gale from Brockhill & Usherwood Lawyers.

The costs in this area have been increasing and whilst a broker can ‘polish up a risk’ as so to speak, there are risks!! We have had more brokers approaching our firm to undertake legal work for their clients prior to renewal to actually reduce the likelihood of future claims rather than merely telling a story of the risk. We have re-drafted sub-consultant agreements to tighten up terms, advised on risk retainer documents and produced reports for insurers which are provided at renewal to explain clients with substantial claims. This is a topic where we can help brokers with complex renewals and can give an overview of the types of claims we are seeing for building practitioners (structural and geotechnical engineers, building surveyors and builders/developers). To present this webinar, we welcome special guest presenters, Blair McNamara and Katy Gale from Brockhill & Usherwood Lawyers.
